Security_System_Basics_thumbnail.jpgIf you're new to the security buisiness, appointed to a new security position at a facility, or have never ventured into intrusion detection technologies, this short video will provide you with the fundamental basics of an intrusion detection system, often referred to as "IDS."

Topics in this video include:

  • What is an Intrusion Alarm System
  • Common System Components

Once past the basics, there's a LOT more to learn from property perimeter detection to protection of very specific government spaces (SCIF).
